I couldn't find a reference to it anywhere else on here so I figured I would let everyone know that the current kids toy in kids meals at Chick-Fil-A are board games by Blue Orange. They are obviously just paper and cardboard reproductions of the original games, but we got Froggy Boogie and played it 3 times yesterday with my daughter. They even come with a little storage box which is great. I plan on going back this week and getting more. There were five games altogether, but the only other one I recognized was Spot It! Anyways, have fun!

Not a fan of Chick-Fil-A's support of hate groups, but, to be fair, Blue Orange would likely appreciate a boycott if it was as effective at growing their company as the boycott of Chick-Fil-A was for the restaurant chain. It drove more business to the company than it drove away.

I have no idea who that is (I'm non american, obviously), but i don't like the association of boardgames to food already....well...Unless it's an edible game. Eat a fry: target burger becomes armored until end of turn... Once per turn you can acquire 1 cheese slice for 10 fries and 1 action point... On a roll of 6, remove all sugar packs back in the box...

I suggest Pandemic: Legacy instead. Just as disposable, less fattening. Although half an hour after finishing a game, you may want another one.

Sounds like yet another reason why I should start visiting the one that went up locally a few years ago. I've always been more of a burger guy, but I'll have to finally check their sandwiches out one of these days.

Chick-fil-A is a fast food chain which specializes in *surprise* chicken. Like McDonald's and their Happy Meals, the menu has children oriented portions with a toy.

Some of the reactions in this thread are related to the company founder's ... beliefs. Closed on Sunday is an example.

For the benefit of the non-Americans, the founder is religious, which is the reason it is closed on Sundays, and caused controversy by publicly opposing same-sex marriages. This led some to boycott the chain.
